    Working on it, though at the moment it's just text-based.

    Amerika No other country in the world is as repressive in this regard. Oct(31)=Dec(25)=> Halloween=Christmas => XMas is pagan festival=> God doesn't exist. I'm not sure which of these lines is the silliest!

  3. Re:skillset on Simple Open Source 3D Game Engines? · · Score: 1

    Thanks to you and the parent poster. I've spent many hours working on an AI project and related stuff, and one of the most frustrating aspects of that is the amount of time I've had to devote to graphics. Everything I do looks ugly regardless of what it's doing, because of the lack of good graphics -- but I can't let that distract me from the main project. Both posts give me something to think about.

    Anyway, yeah -- if you want to learn game programming, you should start with ultra-simple demos like a text-based "guess the number" game to learn about loops and decision-making, then maybe advance to 2D graphics to understand sprites, textures, GUIs, and collision.
